In reply to the discussion: Union Letter: Obamacare Will ‘Destroy The Very Health and Wellbeing’ of Workers [View all]edhopper
(37,114 posts)it was anticipated that since Bush and the GOP screwed this country so badly, the Dems would keep their majority for a awhile and be able to tweak the law as problems arose. But since the Dems and Obama showed they had no balls to go after the criminals and villains in corporate America and Wall Street and gave no one a reason to vote for them in 2010, losing the House, we are now stuck with this terribly flawed law for years to come with no prospect of fixing it.
The result could be that we have a health care system that most people hate, setting back the goal of universal coverage by decades.
I think the repeal of the ACA in the future, leaving us with the Dickensian system we now have (with an even worse burden on the middle class) is much more likely than a single payer system.
